On June 2, 2021, AHA President John Townsend hosted an entertaining evening of five current and former residents of Avondale to recount tales from their past about life in Avondale. AHA resident Paul Dewey recorded the gathering to preserve these memories and we are now pleased to share that hour with everyone online.
We hope you enjoy it!
